[HarfBuzz] hb-view assert with graphite version of Scheherazade

OK. Rather than bend my brain around all the possible configurations of clustering in RTL text, let me ask the following question and then I can work on getting the same clustering out of graphite.

With an rtl input text of arabic, rendering as CIBARA, where we consider a vowel to be a base character and a consonant to be a diacritic, are the clusters (in order):

1. (A R), (A B), (I C)
2. (R A), (B A), (C I)
3. (C I), (B A), (R A)
4. (I C), (A B), (A R)

or something else I haven't thought of?

TIA.
Yours,
Martin
